i
Tho Sad Mental Condition of Ohio's Youth.
full Chief Executive.
The garrulous Governor of Ohio has
mistaken his authority. and is of the
| opinion that the people of the Buckeye
State elected him to be a war Cover
nor with headquarters in the saddle.
He has been displaying, in recent ut
terances, all that cowardice of speech
characteristic of the element that talks
| fight when it is dead sure thing that
no one who fights is around. He
shouts "unhung rebels" to the Ken
tuckians across the river only at a
time when the Ohio is swollen with
high water, that all the bridges are
swept away, and the Kentuckians can
not cross over to brighten him out OF
his boots or force his insults down his
throat. He is in his mind marvellous
! hero of words, brag and buster. But
it is dollars to buttons if a war were in
progress that he would have charge
OF brigade of suffers, all of whom
! would have to pay commissions to him.
Foraker is candidate for renomi-
nation on the ''unhung rebep' record.
He is a pretentious executive of gore
| after Palsy Fairchild's own heart.
He would officiate with pomp and
swagger at the shipment of General
Tuttle's stolen cotton and landau
If it would revive the '.rebel yell. :"
His wild talk and unguarded words
would lead one to believe that he
would be willing accomplice with
General futile and his Matchmaking
arrests and releases for which one
Hart was paid $4,000 to free cit
liens as Tuttle's price to avoid impris-
ment under military rule. Foraker is
a screamer of the first water. and if he
is as bloodthirsty as his speech would
indicate, to be consistent, he will be
compelled to order out the Ohio mill
tia to burn and sack every city and
town in the South.
The country is to be congratulated,
however, that his shrek upon the
words: "Ruin, " "Rebel claims, "
'Solid South" "Rebel pensions and
"Unhung rebels" has terror to no
one, and alarms only his family ply
stefan. For young man from a prov
incial college like Cornell to 90 into
such sectional Mysteries in July is one
of the saddest sights of terrific pc
Rod of heat. Have they no ice in Ohio?
If not they should procure an ice ma
chine in Columbus at once and run
ammonia and brine pipes around the
head oft his young Governor to subdue
his inf1amed brain from the terrible
effects of his delirious thirst for blood.
His mind must be lamentably i'm
paired or he could never have attempt
ed such fight against facts or denial
of history as he puts forth in his July
article in the Forum when he says:
Interference by Republicans with
Democrats in an honest exercise of
the right of suffrage has never been
heard of, and every body knows that
the Republican party would not ac-
cept the fruits of such crime, or, in
any manner, shield the perpetrators of
them, if they should be committed in
it's interest" Shade of lack Chand-
Ter, what lying! Rutherfraud B.
Hayes must have sent him strain of
those "chickens that come home to
roost," or can it be that D. H. Cham
berlain has been imposing upon him
by getting him to revive the 1876 fraud
by charging it upon the Democratic
party in these words in Foraker's ar
ticle: ''The right of suffrage should be
maintained inviolate. Nevertheless,
the fact is that the Democratic party is
in power to-day only because, by the
most shameful offenses, it has over
thrown this right in many places and
States of the South, and, emboldened
by it's successes there, it has sought to
succeed elsewhere by like means" 1t
is too bad to see young and unsophis-
ticated Governor like Foraker made
sport of. He should be sent back to
his parents to be kept away from the
wiles of the world.-Al6any en- ~
